SRMS offers student travel awards for students in any terminal degree program (bachelor’s, master’s, or doctoral) in survey methodology or a survey research discipline.
Support is offered for student attendance at the Joint Statistical Meetings, to be held August 7–12 in Seattle, Washington. Preference is given to students presenting a paper or poster at the conference.
In addition to a short essay and college transcripts, applications must be supported by a current member of SRMS (with a letter of recommendation).
Typically, awards up to $825 are given, which provides $800 for JSM expenses and $25 for ASA student membership (student membership in SRMS is free).
Award recipients are expected to attend JSM sessions and the SRMS business meeting/mixer on Wednesday night to be recognized.
Previous SRMS student travel award winners and SRMS student paper competition winners are not eligible for this award.
The deadline for applications is December 18. Contact Darcy Steeg Morris with questions.
